RGD-USPIO MRI allows for the noninvasive assessment of αvß3-integrin expression in the investigated breast cancer model. RGD-USPIO MRI may be applicable for the in vivo monitoring of early antiangiogenic therapy effects in experimental breast cancer, generating possible complementary molecular imaging biomarkers to morphology-based tumor response assessments.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
